[00:02] Towa
Round and round they went,
[00:06] Towa
and came out squeaky clean!
[00:11] Towa
It's so hot lately, I get sweaty
just folding the laundry.
[00:24] Towa
God,
[00:25] Towa
for the first time since I came to Earth,
[00:28] Towa
the seasons are changing.

[02:04] All
Finals are finally over.
[02:08] Shintaro
And yet here we are again, for some reason.
[02:11] Tsumugi
Right?
[02:13] Noel
True...
[02:15] Shintaro
I never thought we'd be spending so
much time in the occult club's room.
SIGN Occult Research Club
SIGN A little over a week ago
The day of their first occult club visit
[02:22] (Flashback) Noel
Wait!
[02:23] (Flashback) Noel
I came to ask Shintaro if
we could study together!
[02:27] (Flashback) Noel
I believe that studying for exams
together is a friend thing to do!
[02:30] (Flashback) Shintaro
Huh? Is it?
[02:32] (Flashback) Noel
Your place or mine? I don't mind either.
[02:35] (Flashback) Shintaro
We're studying at home? Again, I'd have to...
[02:39] (Flashback) Tsumugi
I-In that case, I wanna join. I'll go, too.
[02:42] (Flashback) Tsumugi
May I?
[02:44] (Flashback) Shintaro
Hmm... I'll have to ask Towa-chan first.
[02:47] (Flashback) Shintaro
Also, I've never actually
studied with friends before.
[02:50] (Flashback) Noel
No way. Is that purely fictional, too?
[02:53] (Flashback) Shintaro
No, I don't think so, but...
[02:57] (Flashback) Lilishka
Why not study here?
[03:04] Noel
Getting to use this place really helped.
[03:08] Tsumugi
Yeah. We owe Lili-chan big time.
[03:13] Tsumugi
We got to be friends with Mofumofu, too.
[03:16] Tsumugi
How are you so cute every day?
[03:22] Lilishka
If you ask me, though, Madame
Tsumugi carried most of the load.
SIGN Note: Handmade from Cardboard
[03:37] Lilishka
I truly appreciate all the
help over the exam period.
[03:40] Shintaro
Way to show up in a coffin like it's nothing.
[03:43] Lilishka
Dare I say it? She was simply divine!
[03:45] Noel
Let's go, Gihren!
[03:47] Tsumugi
Oh, it wasn't that big a deal.
[03:49] Shintaro
No, but it's true.
[03:52] Shintaro
I would've failed for sure if it
wasn't for you, Tsutsumi-san.
[03:55] Tsumugi
Huh?
[03:56] Noel
Yeah.
[03:56] Tsumugi
What?
[03:58] Lilishka
Indubitably!
[04:00] (Flashback) Tsumugi
Use the formula from earlier.
[04:02] (Flashback) Tsumugi
Oh, be careful. That's a trick question.
[04:04] Tsumugi
Yeah, yeah! That's the way!
[04:04] Lilishka
The clarity of Madame Tsumugi's
explanations, her attentiveness...
[04:07] Tsumugi
Let's try that one more time.
[04:09] Tsumugi
Way to go, Tokumitsu! Solve the
next problem the same way.
[04:09] Lilishka
I am filled with awe and gratitude.
[04:12] Noel
For real.
[04:13] Noel
Thank you, Tsumugi-sama.
SIGN Gratitude...
[04:15] Shintaro
Tsumugi-sama!
[04:16] Lilishka
Tsumugi-sama...
[04:18] Tsumugi
Quit teasing me! Jeez!
[04:20] Tsumugi
Wait, did Tokumitsu just call me "Tsumugi"?
[04:25] Tsumugi
That has to be the first time...
[04:27] Shintaro
Tsutsumi-san?
SIGN Flinch
[04:29] Tsumugi
I-It's nothing!
[04:31] Tsumugi
By the way,
[04:32] Tsumugi
exams are over now, so won't our presence
bother the other occult club members?
[04:37] Shintaro
Oh, you're right.
[04:39] Shintaro
I kinda assumed Kagami-san
was the only member.
[04:41] Shintaro
Of course there'd be others.
[04:44] Shintaro
Let's leave so we're not a bother.
[04:46] Tsumugi
Right.
[04:48] Noel
How about we stop by somewhere to
celebrate the end of exams, then?
[04:51] Tsumugi
You mean at a café or something?
[04:53] Noel
Yeah!
[04:54] Shintaro
Sounds good! Wanna join us, Kagami-san?
[04:56] Lilishka
Hold it!
[04:58] Lilishka
I cannot let that slide!
[05:00] Shintaro
Wait, what?
[05:03] Lilishka
"Kagami Sayuri" is the fake
name I use undercover!
[05:07] Lilishka
Call me Lilishka!
[05:10] Shintaro
That's your issue?
[05:11] Shintaro
And why do you always strike a pose?
[05:14] Lilishka
FYI, the noble name Lilishka
[05:16] Lilishka
comes from mixing the "yuri" as in "lily"
in "Sayuri" with a famous vampire's name.
[05:21] Shintaro
Uh, you just admitted that
Lilishka was the fake name.
SIGN Ba-dun
[05:25] Lilishka
I will be the one to choose my name!
[05:28] Shintaro
Seriously, what's with the pose?
[05:30] Noel
Wait, by "famous vampire's name,"
you mean the one from Van Helsing?
[05:34] Lilishka
Indubitably!
[05:36] Noel
Isn't it great that Dracula's brides
have names in that one? It's rare!
[05:41] Lilishka
It appears you have a deep understanding
of the world, Madame Noel.
[05:44] Shintaro
These two are somehow on
the same wavelength...
[05:47] Shintaro
Anyway, let's go.
[05:50] Tsumugi
Yeah.
[05:52] Shintaro
That reminds me.
[05:53] Shintaro
You're only counted as an official club
if you have at least three members, right?
[05:57] Shintaro
Does that mean you have three members?
[06:00] Lilishka
But of course.
[06:01] Lilishka
First, there's me.
[06:03] Lilishka
Then...
[06:04] Lilishka
there's President (TBD).
[06:06] Shintaro
Whoa, that's freaky!
[06:08] Shintaro
Why do you even have that thing?!
[06:10] Lilishka
I found it dumped in storage.
[06:12] Shintaro
I think the verb you're
looking for is "stored."
[06:14] Lilishka
And then there's one more...
[06:23] Shintaro
Oh, sorry!
[06:29] Shintaro
Are you okay?
SIGN Tearing up...
[06:37] Shintaro
Wh-What?! S-Sorry!
[06:40] Shintaro
I made her cry!
[06:43] Lilishka
Let me introduce you.
[06:45] Lilishka
This is Tsurumi Hisui From Class 1-2.
[06:47] Lilishka
She's the other occult club member.
[06:49] Tsumugi
She's tiny!
[06:50] Noel
We have a smol duo!
[06:52] Shintaro
What do I do? She's terrified.
[06:55] Shintaro
I-I should try to be as smooth as possible...
[06:58] Shintaro
Uh, I'm Tokumitsu Shintaro from Class 1-1.
[07:02] Shintaro
Nice to meet you.
[07:06] Shintaro
She hates me!
[07:09] Lilishka
Don't mind Hisui, Shintaro.
[07:11] Lilishka
She's always like this.
[07:14] Lilishka
She hates humans.
[07:16] Hisui
U-Uh... S-Say I'm shy instead...
[07:20] Lilishka
The very sight of humans
makes her seethe in rage.
[07:24] Lilishka
Her tragic karma compels her to.
[07:26] Hisui
No... I just have social anxiety...
[07:29] Shintaro
Give her a break, Lilishka.
[07:31] Tsumugi
Sorry, Tsurumi-san.
[07:33] Tsumugi
We were using this room
to study for the finals,
[07:36] Tsumugi
but we'll be leaving now.
[07:40] Shintaro
Thanks for having us.
[07:41] Shintaro
Oh.
[07:43] Shintaro
Kagami—
SIGN Grr
[07:45] Shintaro
I mean, Lili-chan. What will you do?
[07:48] Shintaro
Tsurumi-san's here, so do you
want to stay and focus on club?
[07:56] Lilishka
No. I'll go with you.
[07:59] Lilishka
I have something important to discuss with
you, Madame Tsumugi, and Madame Noel.
[08:08] Lilishka
Before, the occult research club
[08:10] Lilishka
only had third-year members,
and they graduated earlier this year.
[08:14] Lilishka
It was fated to die, but it stayed
alive because Hisui and I joined.
[08:19] Shintaro
So you two are the only members now?
[08:22] Lilishka
Yes.
[08:23] Lilishka
As such, we are in a very
precarious position right now.
[08:28] Lilishka
If nobody joins, we'll go from
the official occult research club
[08:32] Lilishka
to the unofficial occult research club.
[08:35] Shintaro
Uh, I fail to see the problem?
[08:38] Lilishka
That's where you fine folks come in!
[08:40] Lilishka
I have deemed you worthy of the ultimate
honor: becoming new club members!
SIGN Club
Membership
Application
[08:44] Lilishka
Join us in exploring the deep abyss
of the mysterious and the unexplained!
[08:49] Shintaro
Nah, pass.
[08:51] Lilishka
Wha?!
SIGN Shock
[08:52] Lilishka
But you'll get to spend all the time
you want with your cute senior!
SIGN Booyah
[08:57] Shintaro
Still no.
[08:58] Shintaro
And, what, Mofumofu really is
gonna be higher up the ladder?
[09:01] Lilishka
We have A/C! And all-you-can-drink soft drinks!
[09:05] Shintaro
Urk... That is kinda tempting...
[09:08] Shintaro
But I'm still not joining!
[09:10] Noel
Huh? He's not joining?
[09:10] Tsumugi
Huh? He's not joining?
SIGN These two were considering joining if Shintaro did.
[09:14] Shintaro
Wait, is that what you wanted to discuss?
[09:17] Shintaro
Sorry for dragging you into this, Tsurumi-san.
[09:23] Shintaro
Uh...
[09:24] Shintaro
Oh, if you're a member of this club,
I guess you must like the occult, too.
[09:29] Shintaro
What are you into?
[09:35] Shintaro
I made her cry again!
[09:38] Shintaro
Sorry! You don't have to talk
to me if you don't want to!
[09:41] Shintaro
I'm sorry!
[09:44] Shintaro
Yeah, she does hate me.
[09:47] Shintaro
I should probably stop talking to her.
[09:49] Lilishka
Books, Shintaro.
[09:52] Lilishka
Hisui loves books.
[09:54] Lilishka
But she freaks out when people
sit beside her in the library,
[09:57] Lilishka
so she reads in the club room.
[09:58] Shintaro
I see.
[10:01] Shintaro
But why pick the occult club?
[10:08] Noel
Shintaro, where do you want to celebrate?
[10:11] Noel
We should decide while
walking to the station.
[10:13] Tsumugi
How about a casual restaurant?
They have all-you-can-drink.
[10:16] Shintaro
Hmm... Oh, how about the
Missus D's by the station?
[10:20] Shintaro
They have a big dining space.
[10:27] Tsumugi
What? There's a festival going on?
[10:29] Noel
This is no time for Missus D's.
[10:32] Noel
Festival, Shintaro! A festival!
[10:34] Lilishka
This must be fate—nay, destiny!
[10:46] Shintaro
Sh-She really can't stand me!
[10:50] Staff
Come one, come all!
[10:53] Tsumugi
A festival has a totally different
feel when it's bright out, huh?
[10:57] Shintaro
I know what you mean.
You tend to go to these at night.
[11:01] Noel
Going to a festival with friends...
[11:03] Noel
It happens IRL too, huh, Shintaro?
[11:07] Shintaro
Yeah, I guess so.
[11:08] Shintaro
It's a first for me, too.
[11:10] Tsumugi
Do you go to festivals often, Tsurumi-san?
[11:13] Hisui
I like festivals.
[11:16] Hisui
Especially summer ones.
[11:18] Tsumugi
I get it. Summer festivals have this
free-spirited vibe to them, don't they?
[11:22] Hisui
Mhm.
[11:24] Shintaro
Wait, what?
[11:26] Shintaro
Where'd Lili-chan go?
[11:28] Lilishka
Right here.
[11:34] Shintaro
She got all swagged out in an instant!
[11:37] Lilishka
Each person carries multiple
personae within themselves.
[11:40] Lilishka
Manifesting one to wear it proudly
can also be a form of expression.
[11:45] Shintaro
Mic drop moment, but not with that mask on.
[11:49] Lilishka
What's wrong, Shintaro?
Is something bothering you?
[11:53] Lilishka
Your scent now has the bittersweet
tinge of angst to it.
[11:59] Lilishka
I kind of like it, to be honest.
[12:01] Lilishka
Let me nibble on you for a bit.
[12:03] Shintaro
Where'd that come from? And no.
[12:06] Lilishka
Anyway, tell me what's bothering you.
[12:13] Shintaro
Listen...
[12:14] Shintaro
I feel like Tsurumi-san's
especially scared of me.
[12:18] Shintaro
Not so much with the other girls.
[12:21] Shintaro
Is it because I startled
her right off the bat?
[12:24] Hisui
Huh?
[12:25] Shintaro
Oh, crap! She heard that!
[12:27] Shintaro
S-Sor...
[12:30] Lilishka
Maybe she's mad at you
because you saw her panties?
[12:33] Shintarohisui
Pa—?!
[12:35] Hisui
N-No, Lili-chan...
[12:37] Shintaro
I-I don't think I saw them, though!
[12:39] Tsumugi
Well...
[12:41] Tsumugi
I can't say they weren't visible.
[12:44] Noel
Shintaro, it was an accident. It happens.
[12:47] Noel
Like when you saw mine.
[12:49] Shintaro
Seriously, I didn't see them this time!
[12:51] Hisui
Uh, no... I...
[12:54] Shintaro
I really didn't see!
[12:57] Tsumugi
His desperate pleas are only backing
her further into a corner...
[13:03] Tsumugi
Hey, I'm starting to get hungry.
[13:06] Tsumugi
I want to grab a bite, so why
don't we split up for a bit?
[13:09] Noel
Good idea!
[13:11] Noel
Let's go, Shintaro!
[13:14] Tsumugi
Hey, wait!
[13:28] Lilishka
Evil eye unleashed.
[13:47] Noel
Oh woy, I weay gan'd dalg bwobery
when I ead zomeding gold.
[13:53] Noel
But gwabbing a bite with
fwiends is so fwiendingwike!
[13:58] Noel
This is weally fun!
[13:59] Tsumugi
Uh... "fwiendingwike"?
[14:02] Shintaro
I think she meant to say "friending-like."
SIGN Fwiendingwike
[14:05] Shintaro
Not that you can find
it in any dictionaries.
SIGN Friending-like
[14:12] Noel
Oh, I wanna eat some buttered potato, too.
[14:14] Noel
Let me go get one.
SIGN Buttered Potatoes
[14:16] Tsumugi
Hey, that sounds good.
[14:17] Lilishka
I'll go with you.
[14:19] Hisui
Oh, wait...
[14:20] Shintaro
The girls are going ham on the food.
[14:23] Shintaro
Maybe I should get something, too.
[14:28] Shintaro
Wow, grilled corn! A staple
of summer festivals!
SIGN 200 yen
each
[14:35] Shintaro
Chilled cucumber? Another staple...
[14:39] Shintaro
But I don't think I've ever
had one. I think I'll try it.
[14:48] Shintaro
Do you want one too, Tsurumi-san?
[14:53] Shintaro
I-I startled her again.
[14:55] Shintaro
Oh, sorry! Let's just get some!
[14:59] Shintaro
We'll take two, mister!
[15:01] Cucumbermans
You got it!
[15:03] Shintaro
Here you are.
[15:04] Hisui
I-I'll pay...
[15:06] Shintaro
It's fine. I was getting one anyway.
[15:08] Shintaro
I'll go eat this over there.
[15:11] Hisui
W-Wait...
[15:12] Shintaro
You can relax and enjoy it. Bye.
[15:15] Hisui
Wait... You...
[15:18] Hisui
You've got it wrong!
[15:21] Shintaro
What have I got wrong?
[15:24] Shintaro
Wait, did you not want the cucumber at all?!
[15:26] Hisui
N-No...
[15:29] Hisui
No!
[15:31] Noel
There they are.
[15:33] Noel
Shintaro! And Tsurumi-san, too.
[15:36] Tsumugi
Good thing we found you.
[15:38] Noel
We had no idea where you'd gone.
[15:40] Shintaro
Sorry about that. Did you
get the buttered potato?
[15:42] Noel
I did. It was really steaming.
[15:49] Noel
I'm so full.
[15:50] Tsumugi
And yet you're going to
town on that shaved ice.
[15:54] Noel
Man, da waz zo much fun. I don wanna go.
[15:59] Shintaro
But it's getting dark. We'd better go home.
[16:03] Noel
Yeah...
[16:05] Shintaro
This is not how I expected
to enjoy a summer festival.
[16:09] Shintaro
I never would've imagined it
before coming to this school.
[16:12] Shintaro
We hit up a festival after exams
and had fun with friends...
[16:17] Shintaro
It was a good day.
[16:19] Shintaro
It would've been even better
if Towa-chan were here.
[16:22] Shintaro
I should come back with her.
[16:25] Shintaro
She'll love the festival, I'm sure.
[16:28] Hisui
Oh, Lili-chan...
[16:32] Lilishka
The golden ball of fire sinks,
and in its place rises a pale moon.
[16:37] Lilishka
As Venus begins to shine, the curtain
is drawn on an evening of chaos.
[16:42] Shintaro
Cringe.
[16:44] Noel
Say, Shintaro.
[16:45] Noel
Is it just me or is that like a scene
out of a horror anime set in the boonies?
[16:49] Noel
Is it because of the shrine gate?!
[16:51] Shintaro
Stop it! That's scary!
[16:52] Lilishka
Fates intertwine, piercing the stillness,
[16:56] Lilishka
as hope and despair begin
to dance with the night.
[17:00] Shintaro
Huh?
[17:02] Lilishka
Memento mori...
[17:04] Shintaro
Watch out!
[17:08] Shintaro
Oh, right. She can fly—
[17:11] Tsumugi
Eek! Tokumitsu!
[17:12] Noel
Shintaro! No way!
[17:14] Noel
Shintaro!
[17:15] Tsumugi
Oh, no. It's too dark under the bridge to see.
[17:24] Tsumugi
Tsurumi-san?!
[17:28] Shintaro
C-Crap...
[17:30] Shintaro
I-I can't breathe!
[17:33] Shintaro
That's weird...
[17:35] Shintaro
This river shouldn't be so deep.
[17:48] Noel
Shintaro!
[17:49] Tsumugi
Tokumitsu!
[17:50] Tsumugi
Are you okay?
[17:52] Noel
Are you hurt? Are you cold?
[17:55] Shintaro
I'm fine.
[17:56] Lilishka
F-Forgive me, Shintaro.
I got too carried away.
[18:02] Shintaro
You really scared me there.
[18:04] Shintaro
Thanks for helping me, Tsurumi-san.
[18:07] Hisui
Y-You've got it wrong.
[18:12] Hisui
Tokumitsu-kun...
[18:14] Hisui
I-I'm not used to... talking to boys...
[18:21] Hisui
I got too nervous to talk to you.
[18:23] Hisui
So...
[18:24] Hisui
I'm not scared... of you or anything.
[18:28] Hisui
Sorry for not saying it sooner
and making it awkward for you.
[18:35] Shintaro
Oh.
[18:39] Shintaro
I'm so glad!
[18:43] Shintaro
I should be the one apologizing
for making you all nervous.
[18:47] Shintaro
And I feel like you tried to
tell me this a bunch of times.
[18:51] Shintaro
Sorry I didn't hear you out.
[18:53] Hisui
It's not your fault... Tokumitsu-kun.
[18:58] Shintaro
Man, I'm glad we got to talk it out.
[19:02] Shintaro
Today really is a good day.
[19:04] Shintaro
Outside the whole falling
into the river thing.
[19:06] Tsumugi
Huh? Hang on a sec.
[19:08] Tsumugi
I'm glad you sorted it out,
but, uh... Tsurumi-san?
[19:13] Tsumugi
Your head.
[19:15] Noel
Huh? What is that? A halo?
[19:19] Hisui
Huh? Why?!
[19:20] Shintaro
An angel's halo? Wait,
are you an angel, too?!
[19:24] Hisui
N-No...
[19:27] Shintaronoeltsumugi
She's got something on her back!
[19:30] Shintaro
A shell?
[19:32] Hisui
No! Er, um...
[19:35] Shintaro
Does that mean the thing on your head...
[19:38] Shintaro
is a kappa's dish?
[19:40] Tsumugi
Th-Th-Th-There it is.
[19:43] Tsumugi
We have a kappa now.
SIGN Slam
[19:45] Shintaro
Huh? Tsutsumi-san?!
[19:47] Lilishka
I didn't expect Hisui
to be busted so quickly.
[19:52] Shintaro
You knew? Why didn't you tell us?
[19:55] Lilishka
I didn't have Hisui's permission.
[19:59] Shintaro
Yeah, okay, that makes sense.
[20:01] Shintaro
She does have her rare sensible moments.
[20:04] Hisui
Wh-Why is this happening?
[20:06] Hisui
This wasn't supposed to...
[20:10] Lilishka
Did you eat any cucumber, Hisui?
[20:13] Hisui
Oh!
[20:14] Hisui
I did!
[20:15] Lilishka
Let me explain.
[20:17] Lilishka
Hisui turns into a kappa if she makes contact
with water within an hour of eating cucumber.
[20:22] Shintaro
So it's my fault for buying
her that cucumber!
[20:25] Lilishka
While I'm at it, let me tell you
that she's no ordinary kappa.
[20:29] Shintaro
What do you mean, "no ordinary kappa"?
[20:31] Lilishka
Her grandpa's the boss of the All-Japan
Kappa Federation that secretly runs Japan.
[20:37] Lilishka
Which means she's the future
number one kappa of Japan!
[20:39] Shintaro
That's such a crazy info dump that it's
going in one ear and out the other!
[20:43] Hisui
What do I do? I... I...
[20:47] Noel
Tsurumi-san.
[20:50] Noel
It's okay. All three of
us know about Lili-chan.
[20:55] Noel
Besides, uh, I'm the same.
[20:59] Hisui
Huh? Izumi-san...
[21:02] Hisui
You're a kappa, too?!
[21:03] Noel
Not quite, sorry!
[21:05] Noel
So don't worry. We won't tell anyone.
[21:22] Hisui
Thanks.
[21:24] Shintaro
Listen.
[21:26] Shintaro
I'd like you to meet one more
person, if you don't mind.
[21:29] Shintaro
Of course, I'd have to ask her first.
[21:32] Shintaro
What do you say?
[21:34] Hisui
If you think it's a good idea... I'll do it.
[21:39] Shintaro
Really?
[21:40] Shintaro
Then let me go get her right away.
[21:46] Towa
Wow!
[21:49] Towa
You're a kappa? Amazing!
[21:51] Towa
I'm so honored to meet you
right after meeting a vampire!
[21:57] Towa
The shell on your back is so wonderful.
[21:57] Shintaro
Towa-chan, your wings are showing!
[22:00] Shintaro
So's the shell, but... Calm down, Towa-chan!
